Tho Heathen Chinee la U«ti- The movement to introduce Chinese labor in Louisiana appears to be sne- cessful. Many of the richest and most influential planters of the State are engaged in it as stockholders in the Louisiana Immigration Company, just organised with aoapkal of $260,- 000 in $100 shares. A Mr. Payne, who is at present in China as agent of several individual planters, has en gaged one thousand laborers in that country, and expects to reach Lou isiana with them in time for planting the next crop. They have all been selected from the agricultural dis tricts of China, and they have agreed to work for eight or ten years for eight dollars a month in gold. The Chinese at present in Louisiana live in perfect harmony with the negroes They are nearly all unmarried young men, and are neat and excellent work men. They also appear to be per fectly contented. They are paid $13 U month in currency. Their cabins are kept with care and cleanliness.— It would seem that Louisiana will soon have a large Chinese population. The Siege of Paris. The French government declares that it would be inopportune to raise the siege of Paris at present, and has continued in force with unmitigated severity regulations concerning pass ports, the sale of inflammables, and other matters of policy. The public utterance of insurrectionary doctrines had of late become so frequent as to oonvince the authorities that the mere presence of power, without some exercise of it, was insufficient to in spire the respect or the dread necessa ry for the preservation of order. It is now evidently the purpose of the Government to' hold a heavy baud upon the French capital, until its safety is assured. Arrests of suspec ted persons are made by wholesale, and many of them are upjiaruntly respectable men and women. Among the number under arrest there were yeatorday as many as one hundred and sixty-five subjects of Belgium, and it is stated that their release lias not been and will not be demanded by the Belgium government, though of coarse, it will be seen that they have impartial trials. ^hdSw* TW eighty tears of age, in the tity list week from an adjoinUtg County, who had ■ever seen a railroad car, and when the engine eanw puffing she wanted te know what poshed the thing A lot of Swedish Emigrants arriv ed in Eaton ton last week for planters of Jasper county, who had sent for them.

A Washington dispatch of the 22d •ays: The Secretary of the Treasury states that he has received a proposi tion to sell Trinity Church property in Mew York for twenty-five million of dollars The proposal comes from parties claiming that the estate be longs to the Government under the terms of the treaty of peace of 1783.

Mr. Lincoln was exceedingly aston ished one day, as he was inspecting the prison in Washington, by a pris oner who said to him: “How are yon Mr. President ? I am glad to see you. I believe that you and I have been in every jail in the Union.” “This and the jail in Springfield are the onli ones I was ever in in my life,” saic Mr. Lincoln. “Very likelv,” res ponded the rogne, “but I’ve been in all the rest.” Duct Kill u Flsbaruaum. A horrible affair occurred on Tues day on Barren Island, which is situa ted between Coney Island and Far Rockaway, on 1-otig Island. A fish erman named Ban Ryder, while f ing near this island, landed for water, and upon gaining the beach Ryder was first attacked by three savage bloodhounds, who lacerated his limbs in a fearful manner. Ryder nearly succeeded in regaining his sloop, when five more ferocicious dogs fell upon him, throwing him upon the beach and gnawing his back and breast frightfully. Captain Petty, of Bellefont, and his friends, who were inayachtubont • mile distant, saw the whole atfair, and hastened to resene Ryder, who was found nearly dead from loss of blood, and his clothing stripped from his body, There are uo hopes of his reooveiy.

A letter from Gen. Spinner gives an account of his attempting to call upon the Rothschilds at their London *. After waiting a long time in the ante-room, he left. A messenger soon followed with an apology, but the General contented himself with returning a message that they did not treat dogs that way in America.—, Really, is there no rid tape at Wash ington? “ The hard, earnest way in which some” Yankees “ lmte niggers affords really a curious subject for study.”— The other day Mr. J. S. White died, leaving 170,000 to the University of Vermont at Burlington, upon the’ex press condition that- no colored stu dent should ever roociven dollar of it.
